Notes

Knowing that many schools still have travel bans and budgets are restricted this year, the Board of Directors made the difficult decision to postpone Las Vegas and return to a virtual conference format in 2021. More people will be able to participate, and we know we can hold an engaging, meaningful conference showcasing world-class research. |
